Depends on how many does you have. IF you are heavily populated with does, and some do not get hit, they will go back into heat about 2 weeks later, i wanna say

Not sure what calender or what part of Area 6 this may be referring to, but in the Plaquemine/White Castle area the rut wont peak until after Christmas.

This will last until mid-way thru the second week of Jan and then from about 10-17th or so we try to catch bucks "wandering". These deer are looking for un-bred does and just kinda wander the property at anytime of the day. Jan 15th is known as a great time to see such activity.

some areas will have a second and even a 3rd rut. Second are the does which didn't get "it' the first time around. Third is usually some early born yearling does coming into their first estrus.
Biggest buck ever taken on the Georgia property I hunt was an 8 1/2 yr old that dressed 242lbs. Grossed over 160 B@C.Was following a yearling doe, middle of the afternoon and was shot by my best friends dad who was sitting on a stump waiting to shoot stray dogs/coyotes that had been seen in that area.

That "young stuff" will get an old man in trouble I tell ya!
